I should have gone back to the altar and finished my prayer.

I should have kept my head down, said what I came to say to the moon goddess, and gotten back in that carriage. That was the sensible thing. That was what any person with sense would have done.

Instead my feet were moving.

I genuinely could not tell you what it was, curiosity, something else, I don't know. My body was already going toward that door before I had made any conscious decision to move, and Arabella wasn't pushing or strain

  • MARRIED TO AN ALPHA, CLAIMED BY THE LYCAN KING    ༄Chapter 22

    Ethan's POVI watched her hands shake against the fabric of her gown and said nothing.She was trying to put herself back together with the urgency of someone who had come undone in front of a person they weren't supposed to come undone in front of, and the effort she was putting into looking composed while her fingers trembled against the hem was something I filed away without letting anything show on my face about it.I kept my expression exactly where it always was.Still and unreadable. The same face I wore in war rooms and throne rooms and every room where the wrong flicker of expression gave people information they could use against you. I had been wearing it so long it no longer required effort.Serena had been dealt with.That was the primary outcome of the last few minutes and it had been cleaner than I had expected when I heard her voice at that door. She had cheated. That was the fact and the fact was all there was, I had no interest in her explanation or her regret or the

    I did not turn around.The woman's voice was behind me and Ethan's eyes were in front of me and I kept my gaze exactly where it was because the look he was giving me left absolutely no room for anything except doing what he had just told me to do. It wasn't a request dressed up as an instruction. It was just an instruction, sitting in his amber eyes with the full weight of everything he was behind it, and every part of me that had a survival instinct understood that there was no version of this moment where I said no.I reached for the hem of my gown.My hands were not steady and there was nothing I could do about that. I pulled the gown up slowly and lifted it over my head and the air of the room touched my skin and I was standing in just my bra and my lace panties in front of the Lycan King and I kept my chin up because dropping it wasn't going to help anything."What the fuck, Ethan?"The woman's voice split through the room from behind me sharp and loud and I kept my eyes on Ethan

    Bella's POVI noticed the absence of guards and servants somewhere in the middle of the walk and it took me another few seconds to understand what it meant. No staff lining the corridors, no guards posted at intervals, no one moving through the hallways at all. Just Beta Matthew's footsteps ahead of mine and the quiet of a part of the palace that was not meant to be seen by most people who came here.Private suite.Of course. A king with a curse that nobody was supposed to know about wasn't going to have me escorted through the public areas of his palace and past every set of eyes that lived here. That made sense. It didn't make my heart rate do anything more reasonable but it made sense.Matthew stopped at the last door at the end of a long hallway and turned to look at me briefly."Go inside," he said.And then he was already walking back the way we had come, his footsteps getting quieter, and I was standing in front of a closed door in a private hallway of the Lycan King's palace e

    Bella's POV"I'm going out to see a friend," I said, and I held his gaze and kept my face completely straight and gave him absolutely nothing.Andrew looked at me. Then his eyes moved down over my outfit slowly, the way he did when he was looking for something to catch, something that didn't add up. Then he looked at Julie standing behind me and I felt her go still without turning to check."Which one of your useless friends?" he asked."Someone from before the marriage," I said. "I don't think you'd remember her. It was a long time ago, and my friends are not useless." I kept my voice easy, kept my shoulders relaxed, and kept the whole performance sitting at exactly the right level of casual. "I'll be back before it gets late. Julie's with me and your driver, so they can report to you when we're back." I smiled at him. "You'll know exactly when I'm home."Andrew looked at me for a moment longer than was comfortable and I held the smile right where it was and waited."Hmm." He looked

    Bella's POVThe second my father walked out of that door Andrew dropped his hand from my waist.Not gradually, not with any attempt to make it look natural, he just let go, immediately, like the performance had an off switch and my father stepping outside was the thing that flipped it. Like touching me for longer than was necessary was something he couldn't stomach once there was no audience to do it for.He smiled at me. One side of his mouth, lazy and satisfied."You acted well," he said. "Keep that up and I won't raise my hand on you." Then he turned and walked away.I stood in the middle of the sitting room and stared at the empty space he left behind and felt the full weight of my situation settle on me all at once. Not the specific sharp pain of the slap or the throb of my arm or any of the individual things, all of it together, at the same time, sitting on my chest like something I had to consciously breathe around.My father had just left. He had walked out of this packhouse b

  • MARRIED TO AN ALPHA, CLAIMED BY THE LYCAN KING    ༄Chapter 17

    Bella's POVMy father was here.I couldn't fully wrap my head around it but I felt it immediately, that warm shift in my chest the second Cordell said his name, something settling inside me. My father, Alexander of Blackthron. Here. In this packhouse. And for one full second I let myself feel the relief of that without pulling it apart or questioning it because I needed that second.I could talk to him. I could find a moment, a quiet corner, tell him I needed out of this marriage without Andrew knowing, without making it a whole political situation, without involving the King again. My father was powerful and he was here and that changed something about today that nothing else had managed to change."Go to your room, Hailey." Andrew's voice came from somewhere behind me, still in that soft careful tone he kept just for her. "I need to handle this."I heard him kiss her forehead. And then his footsteps, and then he was looking at me."Don't even think for one second that you can do any
